4. Pull the belt to check that it is securely
fastened.
SAFETY INFORMATION
eat Belts
Using seat belts and child safety seats is the
most effective way to protect occupants if a
collision occurs. Therefore, wearing a seat belt
is required by law in most jurisdictions.
5.
Pull the diagonal part of the belt toward the
reel to remove excess slack.
To Release a Belt
Both the driver and passenger seats are
equipped with three-point inertia reel seat
belts. Inertia reel belts are automatically
tensioned to allow occupants to move
comfortably during normal driving conditions.
Hold the belt near the buckle to prevent the
belt from retracting too quickly, then press the
button on the buckle. The belt retracts
automatically. Ensure there is no obstruction
that prevents the belt from fully retracting. The
belt should not hang loose. If a seat belt does
not fully retract, contact Tesla.
The seat belt reel automatically locks to
prevent movement of occupants if Model S
experiences a force associated with hard
acceleration, braking, cornering, or an impact in
a collision.
Wearing Seat Belts When Pregnant
The seat belt reminder on the
instrument panel alerts you if a seat belt
for an occupied front seat is not
fastened. If the belt remains unfastened, the
reminder flashes and an intermittent chime
sounds. If all occupants are buckled up and the
reminder stays on, refasten seat belts to ensure
they are correctly latched. Also remove any
heavy objects (such as a briefcase) from an
unoccupied seat. If the reminder light continues
to stay on, contact Tesla.
Do not put the lap or shoulder sections of the
seat belt over the abdominal area. Wear the lap
section of the belt as low as possible across the
hips, not the waist. Position the shoulder
portion of the belt between the breasts and to
the side of the abdomen. Consult your doctor
for specific guidance.
To Fasten a Belt
WARNING: Never place anything
between you and the seat belt to cushion
the impact in the event of an accident.
1.
Ensure correct positioning of the seat.
2.
Draw the belt out smoothly, ensuring the
belt lays flat across the pelvis, chest and
mid-point of your collar bone, between the
neck and shoulder.
3.
Insert the latch plate into the buckle and
press together until you hear a “click”
indicating it is locked in place.
